Simple Sourdough Bread

Disclaimer: I have no idea what I’m talking about. This is just me recording what is working as I experiment with this stuff, and get more successful.

I’ve been into photography for a few years now, and recently was getting into the idea of longer exposures, and exploring the night sky. It’s been a goal of mine to get a decent telescope for a long time, as it’s impossible not to be fascinated by the scale and distance at play when you look up on a clear night. I recently managed to get one and was impressed with the performance of it after a single outing.
